Scribe Offset Settings
Use these offsets when configuring the scribe toolhead on a 2020-series system. These values define the position of the scribe relative to the primary plasma tool.
Offset Values
| Axis | Offset |
|---|---|
| X | -65.9 mm |
| Y | 27 mm |
| Z | 6.0 mm (assumed unit — verify in your system) |
You can also manually verify the offset by a simple procedure, with a scrap piece of steel zero the X and Y and fire the torch into the material. Then move the X and Y until the scribe tip fits centered in the hole that was created from firing the plasma. Note the X and Y measurements and convert them to mm.
Notes:
-
Offsets must be entered into your CAM or controller software when running dual-head setups.
-
Always verify tool zero position after entering offsets.
-
Z height may vary slightly based on material thickness — test before production.
